(by Amos Bohoussou)
I got to know what the truth is. / Can't believe what the liar says. / Got to seek till I find. / Because my faith is not blind. / Got to know what the truth is. Got to know what the truth is. Got to know what the truth is. Got to know what the truth is. "What is the truth?", Pilate asked. / Jesus saw clearly through his mask. / Washed hands, not guilty. / “I’m doing good morally.” What hypocrisy. / Christ still paid, with his life, our penalty. / Exchanging his clean cloths of royalty / for our worn out rags that were filthy. / Man, we deserve nothing from God surely. / But God loved his own from the beginning. / Foreknowing that mankind would go on sinning. / The void we may try filling / through our works will give us an unsatisfying ending. / But thank God for his grace and mercy. / He who sent his Son for our saving. / Promising through himself life everlasting. / The truth, you are searching ? Good. Complete the task / by seeking reality in the Bible, it states facts.
Got to know who the Lord is. / Got to know who the Lord is. / God is love is, the Bible says. / People may think he's heartless (see Is. 49:14-16 KJV). / Got to know who the Lord is. / Got to know who the Lord is./ Got to know who the Lord is. / Got to know who the Lord is. Love starts with God and never with us; / out of good pleasure He created us. / Love...many have tried to define it / and many have failed by defiling it. / To go to God, Jesus is the way / Christ's death on the cross was put on display fully expressing God's agâpé . / Love is not based on what we've done, / but mainly upon who God is. / Many may think he's brute, merciless. / Others may think he's harmless. / But if we take what the Bible says / and push away what the world says, / with the help of the Spi-rit we will know who the Lord is. / God is holy, he casts out iniquity. / God is just- he conveys equity. / God is good – concentrate on that concept correctly and concretely. /
Got to do what the Lord says. / Got to do what the Lord says... Remain in God's love through obedience and do the two greatest commandments. / Got to do what the Lord says. / Got to do what the Lord says. / Got to do what the Lord says. / Got to do what the Lord says. Jesus learned obedience through suffering. / So in that case suffering is good for our learning. / Naturally we hate pain. / Yet in it there is gain. / If our homes are built on the Rock we can surely sustain. / Following Christ is never vain. / Eternal life through him we obtain. / Angels on earth we are to entertain. / As we wait for our King's return and royal reign / This world may drive us insane. / Yet we have a peace in Christ that will keeps us secure and sane. / We have no need to complain. / But to proclaim the Gospel faithfully / and not simply base it on what we think about it subjectively. / What is the secret of being happy? / To trust and obey. / For there is no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
Got to know what the truth is… / Got to know who the Lord is… / Got to do what the Lord says…/ Got to. Got to. Got to. Got to…
